Description Read before you comment or fave

Congrats to the DA user She became my 100th watcher and I decided to do something special. As a gift, I did this special request drawing of her dragon Nebula. The OC's bio is below.

From
Bio: Nebula is one of the ancient dragons that dwell in the deep universe. As protector of the stars, she is able to choose when a star is born or when one will die. Her Black-Hole Bite can send planets and galaxies into a void and even possibly another dimension. Her Solar Fire has the same color as the blue supergiant stars in deep space.
Creating black-holes consumes a large amount of energy and Nebula often has to rest for a full 5 years in order to regain her strength. Her fury attack is known as Explosive Pulsar and has enough strength to wipe out entire galaxies, but this fury is rarely used. Nebula's horns are made of crystal and her collar helps focus her power with her attacks.

Congrats! And I hope you enjoy this

Thanks for this well written critique. I didn't quite think of the expression as triumph, but now as I look at it your right. I also can't believe I did this in just 4 hours. I usually take 20+ hours for something this detailed. And yeah, I like drawing full body scales. I guess you can call it my style.

The wing probably looks off because it's drawn as a right wing instead of a left one. The wing tips should be pointing the other way. Didn't see it until later. Oops
The front paws, they were painful to draw. Took me three or four times to draw them. Just trust me when I say they used to be worse.

And thanks for the overall critique, very helpful and honest

Your welcome! Heh heh, just something you notice
if you look more closely XD Yeha, I remember you
telling me once about how long it takes you!
It is your style indeed!

Yeah, its probably just a small mistake,
doesn't really matter to the overall look.
Those front paws are really hard to draw,
I know how you feel! Your welcome,

Very beautiful

btw, how do you make the text larger like you did in your artists comments?

Tsitra360 In reply to ViscountDevil [2010-11-15 03:41:08 +0000 UTC]

Thank you! I appreciate it.

I made the text larger using HTML code. It's very easy. Just use the

tag to make the text VERY big. But don't forget to close it with

. Example:

Big words

Oh, and the higher the number after h, the smaller the text. 1 is the biggest. And this doesn't work in comments, just in artists comments.

Another masterpiece, bravo. It almost seems like everything you touch turns into something amazing. Even if the background was on its own it still would be amazing.

The detail you put into the scales really differentiates your art from the others. As soon as I see those scales I know this is the work of Tsitra360.

Tsitra360 In reply to ElectricZoNe444 [2010-08-28 05:43:01 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! For a second I thought you were going to say "Everything you touch turns into GOLD". If that was true, it would be very hard eating pizza.

Really? You can tell? I knew I was developing my own drawing methods but I didn't think I have my own art style yet. I'm still experimenting so we'll see how my art will change in the future.

ElectricZoNe444 In reply to Tsitra360 [2010-08-28 14:29:48 +0000 UTC]

The way you make the scales reflect the light, the depth and detail you give them gives it away to me.

Kinda reminds me of the Nova drawing you did, and on that note it's just as spectacular.

I wouldn't want them to meet. And yeah, it does have some similarities. I may need to expand into different poses.

Your welcome, and I had fun drawing her. I wanted to depict her star destroying/creating abilities. Stars are sometimes born from dust of old dead stars.

Owww, that's a lot of hugs. Haha, thanks.

Now, time to edit the dragon out into the Mac OS X default Galaxy wallpaper.. Haha.. xD
Anyway, really Awesome work..! It makes me happy to see a good dragon picture now and then.. Great work and keep it up..!

Cheers!

Tsitra360 In reply to ShurtugalRon [2010-08-27 16:36:37 +0000 UTC]

Haha, I already did that. The dragon is on its own layer and I have the galaxy as my wallpaper. In fact, the canvas size is the resolution of my iMac.

Thanks, I always push myself to do better.

Years of practice and patience. I also kept in mind of how to guide the viewers eye. You probably saw the galaxy first, then the light trail, then the dragon, then the space clouds, and back to the dragon. It's fun making people do that

bryonythedragon In reply to Tsitra360 [2010-08-28 10:15:41 +0000 UTC]

Well I actually focused on the dragon's details first. Like the scales and the way you draw/colour horns. Then I moved onto the background. All together it was great!
